About this episode
The episode discusses the role of AI in medicine, focusing on its impact on clinical work, trust among clinicians, and the emotional aspects of patient care.
Artificial intelligence is reshaping how clinicians think and care for patients. In our conversation with Jonathan Chen, MD, PhD, Associate Professor of Medicine and Biomedical Data Science at Stanford University, he shares how AI has enhanced his own clinical work and the practical steps that foster trust and adoption among clinicians. The discussion goes beyond technology to explore the emotional dimensions of care, address bias, and outline the safeguards needed to use AI responsibly. We also review AI’s impact on medical education and the evolving hospital landscape for responsible, future-ready AI-enabled care. Join us for a thoughtful exploration of the promise, challenges, and path forward to integrate AI into clinical decision making.
